The best time of Machiko Naguchi's life came in the wake of the Ryushi colony massacre. It was then that she abandoned her human heritage and ran with the Predators as a dedicated Hunter.

Customer Reviews

An excellent sequel to an excellent book

Hunter's Planet is the wonderful sequel to Prey, and just like the first one, this book is outstanding. Machiko Naguchi returns for the sequel and is now working for The Company after hunting for the Predators for 2 years. Very well written, great plot with many unexpected twist and turns. It has action, mystery, and even a tiny bit of romance all thrown in to make one heck of a novel. If you have read Prey, definately pick this book up because contrary to other opinions, this book is every bit as good as the first one, and having Atilla the Hun (an android) adds even more to the book. A very entertaining read. So great I read 150 pages of it in one day.

great book

This was the first book I read of the AvP series. I thought it was great. It tells the story of Livermore Evanston who creates a "Hunters Planet" with alterior motives and brings in the point of view of him, Machiko Noguchi, and the predators and melds it into one at the end finale. It is good has good action and overall I think gets unfair reviews by people who nit pick and read a book with the objective of expecting it to be the way they want it and not the way it is written if you can enjoy the series and read the book neutrally you will enjoy it. If you go in with the objective of reading it and expecting it a certain way you won't enjoy the book. Unfortunately many of the reviewers here don't give it a fair shake and mislead customers with their reviews.
